(CNN) — A 7.1-magnitude earthquake rattled the Solomon Islands on Friday, the U.S. Geological Survey reported.
There were no immediate reports of a tsunami.
The quake comes two days after an 8.0-magnitude earthquake struck the same region, triggering a tsunami that killed five people but didn't threaten the wider region.
Four elderly people and one child died after a roughly 1-meter (3-foot) wave hit the Santa Cruz Islands, an eastern region of the Solomon Islands, said Augustine Bilve, a director at a hospital in Lata, the main town in the area.

Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt's office says it has paid outside attorneys more than $1 million to defend anti-abortion laws enacted in recent years.
The attorney general's office reported Thursday that it has paid more than $612,000 to the Lawrence firm of Thompson, Ramsdell & Qualseth for fees and expenses in handling multiple federal and state lawsuits.
Abortion providers have sued the state over special regulations adopted in 2011 and a 2013 law requiring them to post certain material on their websites and provide the information to women before abortions.
Schmidt's office also has paid more than $418,000 to the Wichita firm of Foulston Siefken to defend a measure keeping federal dollars for non-abortion services from flowing to Planned Parenthood.

Course objectives:
- Discuss the steps of initiation in becoming a divine rebel, including more than one dark night of the soul, preparing you to walk a path of truth and love for the ultimate spiritual revolution.
- Observe stories of saints, sages, and mystics—including the evolutionary nature of divine rebel partnerships--and learn from both their struggles and triumphs.
- Summarize the value of the convergence of the sacred masculine and sacred feminine in our time.
- Observe fierce wisdom, revelatory teachings, and compassionate guidance for your soul's most transformative journey.
They rose up to challenge the status quo and shake the foundations of our world. Francis of Assisi, Teresa of Avila, Mother Mary, and divine rebels throughout the ages—their true legacy is not what they did in their time on earth, but the eternal beacon that they held up for each of us to follow. On Divine Rebels, Caroline Myss and Andrew Harvey offer you an opportunity and a challenge—to listen for the same divine voice that called to history's greatest spiritual trailblazers, and to answer it in your own life.
Essential Training for an Insurgency of Truth and Love
"If you are ready to put your soul in charge of your life instead of your ego, you are ready for your own rebellion," teaches Caroline Myss. Inspired by mystics such as Rumi, Sri Aurobindo, and Saint John of the Cross, Myss and Harvey have created a map for the journey to your own awakening. The first stage, they teach, is to overthrow the harmful and false beliefs we hold about ourselves—that we are small, unworthy, and isolated from the divine. Once you have grasped that revolutionary idea, you can begin to usurp the dominion of the ego and overcome the obstacles that stand in the way of your true purpose.
Every one of us will hear the call in our lives—a drive to act that starts with the soul and expresses itself as a radical transformation in the way we live. The lesson of the divine rebel is that when we offer ourselves wholly to do what the divine asks of us, the power of grace will come flooding into our lives. Divine Rebels is a training course in finding the inspiration and courage to answer your own call—and discover for yourself why the ultimate rebellion is love.

- A Melodramatic Mess Review by Darryl and Carol
I so wanted to like DIVINE REBELS. The premise was promising and I like the authors' past work. Unfortunately, the melodramatic tempests the authors try to stir up just made me want to rush to the post office and express mail them both some Victorian smelling salts. Unfortunately, the message and intent of DIVINE REBELS is lost due to this over the top presentation. It's disruptive to the point that try as one may to listen to the content, it's impossible. I found myself laughing at their hijinks in their shrill attempts to get their point across. A lost opportunity for an important topic.

- Not my cup of tea Review by Dani
I would highly recommend listening to the sample before buying this audiobook. Both the speakers have a certain way of speaking that is not for everyone. It certainly isn't for me and I returned the audiobook on this account. Andrew Harvey seems to me to be in the throws of emotionalism throughout much of recording. Caroline Myss frequently makes claims and judgements regarding the listener that just didn't ring true to me on account of them being such sweeping generalisations. Being kicked up the butt by a spiritual teacher can be helpful on occasion, but I find that it's more useful when the teacher actually knows you and the certain flavour of your hang ups.

I agree with the reviewers who said that this project is both inspiring and a bit melodramatic. I have a very short rope when it comes to melodramatic, but it was long enough to hold me while I received all the wonderful content. Great for hard heads like me who want to be nudged a bit closer to their truth.

- Review for Divine Rebels Review by MJ
It's always so interesting to see various people's reactions to Caroline and Andrew's work. I can totally understand how this material might seem over-the-top to many listeners, the delivery at times overwrought (Andrew) or strident (Caroline). I've felt this way myself about their teachings many, many times, but I keep coming back for more. Maybe I'm a spiritual masochist, but I don't think so. Here's what I know: the work of Caroline Myss and Andrew Harvey is like a deep, healing well for the soul. Not the kind of healing you get from talking with a therapist (not that there's anything wrong with that) -- it's not on that level at all. These teachers call forth something truly profound inside of you and hit *a lot* of messy, nasty, raw, bloody nerves in the process, which I think is one of the big reasons why so many people dislike them. This particular program is, in my opinion, the best I've ever heard from Andrew Harvey; aside from the first session in which he presents, it feels less hysterical and more measured/down to earth than any of his previous work, and (like Caroline) this guy really gets what it means to be a mystic. Caroline's contributions are, as always, passionate, unpredictable, and wild. She meanders, digresses, loses focus, breaks into stand-up comedy, and occasionally struggles to articulate her insights, but I swear she's never seemed more real (and hilarious) than she does here, and I just love her for thata. Plus she really knows how to kick some serious spiritual ass when she needs to. (I've probably learned more from this woman than all the other spiritual teachers I've studied combined, so I'm willing to go along for the ride, even when it feels a bit like hot-rodding with your favorite crazy, mystical aunt.) Bottom line, this program exceeded all of my expectations, made me laugh out loud and cry, and stretched me into uncomfortable positions, which is a good thing. If you suspect even the tiniest little bit that the mystic archetype is active in your life, you'll want to give this series a try.

- Review for Divine Rebels Review by stephanie
I use to feel extremely inspired by Myss. She and her Muse has been such a catalyst in helping me to remove limitations within my thinking and in creating the seemingly impossible possible. Talk about having the direct experience of change! After implementing the inner work she advocates, I now have a life that is full of possibilities, stamina and natural devotion. However, I've witnessed a change in her recent work, including her online Salon - the energy feels egoic. The delivery feels judgmental, chastising and ridiculing. Perhaps she's frustrated that those she's teaching hasn't woken up all ready. At times the teaching doesn't feel as if the lessons are emanating from a place of centered empowerment, which make it nearly impossible to have a transference of empowerment, of grace, of knowledge of true learning and assimilation of change, for the energy being transferred is contemptuous and lambasted. There is a difference between imparting spiritual discipline and imposing punishment or a sense of over bearing control. You know what, this feels like the shadow side of the mentor. I definitely experienced first hand her shadow during a hayhouse call - I experienced her in that moment to have an overbearing attitude and lack of presence to offer any true wisdom. Great lesson for me though, to be mindful of the sources I seek for wisdom and to truly listen from within. Even, in witnessing these shadow aspects of Myss allows for me to learn and grow - but that doesnâÂÂt mean IâÂÂll place myself consciously in her path again (on the phone or audio). I need only be trespassed against once to learn my lesson.

I will not purchase anymore CDs that Caroline Myss does with a colleague or FRIEND (eg, Norm, Andrew or Clariss). I have them all and find that I only listen to Caroline and have discarded the other CDs.
(Posted on 7/4/2012)
- Review for Divine Rebels Review by Gayle
I don't quite know what to make of this material. Though much of it is interesting, some of the presentations strike me as over-the-top in their ferocity. Like the old-time fire and brimstone preachers. And judgemental, at one point comparing new-age teachings with the Whore of Babylon. I think if you are Catholic or Christian and like the hair-shirt philosophy of spiritual development, this may be for you. As for me, usually a big fan of Caroline, I come away feeling chastised and not at all inspired.

Mold Disclosure
Property: ______________________, ______________________, Virginia __________Landlord: _________________________Tenant: _________________________
Landlord's Mold Disclosure
MOLD DISCLOSURE: There are many types of mold. Inhabitable properties are not, and cannot be, constructed to exclude mold. Moisture is one of the most significant factors contributing to mold growth. Information about controlling mold growth may be available from your county extension agent or health department. Certain strains of mold may cause damage to property and may adversely affect the health of susceptible persons, including allergic reactions that may include skin, eye, nose, and throat irritation. Certain strains of mold may cause infections, particularly in individuals with suppressed immune systems. Some experts contend that certain strains of mold may cause serious and even life-threatening diseases. However, experts do not agree about the nature and extent of the health problems caused by mold or about the level of mold exposure that may cause health problems. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is studying the link between mold and serious health conditions. The seller, landlord, seller's agent, buyer's agent, or property manager cannot and does not represent or warrant the absence of mold. It is the buyer's or tenant's obligation to determine whether a mold problem is present. To do so, the buyer or tenant should hire a qualified inspector and make any contract to purchase, rent, or lease contingent upon the results of that inspection. A seller, landlord, seller's agent, buyer's agent, or property manager who provides this mold disclosure statement, provides for the disclosure of any prior testing and any subsequent mitigation or treatment for mold, and discloses any knowledge of mold is not liable in any action based on the presence of or propensity for mold in a building that is subject to any contract to purchase, rent, or lease.
Tenant's Disclosure
The Tenant ACKNOWLEDGES receipt of the information contained in the above Landlord's Mold Disclosure.
A Residential Lease is sometimes called a:
A Residential Lease agreement is a form that both the tenant(s) and landlord(s) negotiate and sign when the tenant will be renting property from the landlord. The Lease includes property, tenant, and landlord details.
The Lease also covers:
Both the tenant and the landlord should keep a copy of the signed agreement for their records.
You can use this Rental Contract for any type of residential property rental, including:
When entering into any type of residential rental circumstance you should ensure that you have a valid contract to outline your rights and responsibilities as a landlord or a tenant. People who may find this form useful are:
A common form of a rent-to-own agreement is a rental contract with an option to purchase or buy. An option to purchase gives the tenant the chance to buy the home for a certain price within a certain period of time.
This form of agreement is used where a landlord wishes to sell a home but the potential tenant either has a negative credit rating or can't save a large enough deposit for a lender-based mortgage.
The tenant(s) pay a non-refundable option fee and in return the landlord provides the renter an option to purchase the home at a predetermined price. If the tenant decides not to purchase the property, the landlord keeps the option fee or deposit.

The first woman said to him, " This woman and I live in the same house. We both had babies. This woman rolled over while she slept and suffocated her child. Since she was so heartbroken she switched her baby with mine while I slept, so that this morning I woke up and my baby was dead. But then I realized it wasn't my baby, but hers. But she says it isn't. Who is right?" King Solomon had the remaining child brought to him. "Cut him in half, and give each women one half. Then they shall be even," he ordered. How did this help solve the problem????
HintIf you're stuck then look it up in the Bible. I'm pretty sure it's in 2Kings.
AnswerThe real mother cried for mercy for the child and said that the child could be given to the other women if the child's life could just be spared. Then other women said "Go ahead, kill him. Then we shall be even." Solomon then knew that the real mother would love her child so much that she wouldn't let him die, even if it meant losing him.

Oceana 3d programming demo
Programmed using C++, openGL and 3dsmax4
A realtime underwater 3d simulation of schools of fish. Fish attempt to follow their closest neighbours, while avoiding collisions, just like real schools of sea creatures that seem to move as a group. With this software you can watch the beautiful swimming motion of animated 3d fish from the bottom of the ocean.
Written in C++ using openGL, this realtime 3d simulation features water caustics (reflections on the seafloor), particle systems (air bubbles), god-rays (beams of light), dynamic LOD Bezier curves (the undulating sandy terrain geometry), and BOIDS (the ai algorithm for flocking fish movement).

Total hip replacement surgery reduces hip pain and stiffness and restores mobility. Patients who undergo traditional hip replacement surgery will not be able to return to high-impact activities, such as running, but they will enjoy daily tasks with less pain.
If you suffer from severe arthritis pain or a hip injury, your doctor can help you decide if total hip replacement is the best treatment to restore your quality of life and get you back on your feet again. Watch our video to learn more.
Request a total hip replacement appointment online.
Patients who qualify for total hip replacement surgery usually have one or more of the following conditions:
Some patients may be candidates for less invasive types of hip replacement surgeries. Learn more about hip resurfacing and the anterior approach to hip replacement.
Total hip replacement involves replacing the hip joint's cartilage and bone with implants.
Traditional hip replacement is an open surgery that requires an 8 to 10-inch incision close to the buttocks. This procedure utilizes the posterior approach to hip replacement. Your surgeon will create a new hip joint that moves smoothly with the following steps:
When you wake up from surgery, you may have:
Most people go home a few days to a week after hip replacement surgery. Your doctor may want to see you for regular visits for several months or more to monitor your hip replacement.
You will work with a physical therapist during your hospital stay in North Carolina and learn how to use a walker, cane or crutches after total hip replacement surgery. You will continue with strengthening exercises at home. Some patients may need to go to a specialized rehab center for more treatment. Total rehab after surgery will take several months.
After you go home, your doctor may recommend:
Controlling your weight will help your new hip joint last longer. Learn more about
You will be up and walking the day after hip surgery. Recovery varies from patient to patient, but most patients are walking unassisted within 2 to 8 weeks.
Most people have much less pain after total hip replacement surgery. While high-impact activities – such as running – will no longer be possible, you will be able to return to most daily activities. Here's what you can expect:
If you feel you're a candidate for total hip replacement surgery, request an orthopaedic appointment online.

Comparing Ratios
Lesson 7 of 13
Objective: SWBAT use ratio tables to compare ratios.
Big Idea: Any entry within one ratio table for one term can me compared with any entry from the ratio table for the other term.
Think About It
Students work in partners in the Think About It problem. After 3 minutes of work time, I bring the class together and ask them who thinks Ms. Thody has the spicier chili, and who thinks Ms. Rey has the spicier chili.
The majority of kids will raise their hand for Ms. Rey having the spicier chili, because she uses the higher number of tablespoons in the word problem. Students don't think about the ratios when they are working to solve this problem.
I tell students that I am about to prove to them three different times that the spicier chili belongs to Ms. Thody.
Resources (1)
Intro to New Material
I use the Think About It problem for the start of the New Material section. At the bottom of this page, I create ratio tables for each teacher, including a total column. I then tell students that I am going to prove to them three times that Ms. Thody has the spicier chili.
First, I ask students to find a number that shows up on both total columns. When the total is 45, Ms. Thody uses 18 tbsp of chili powder, and Ms. Rey uses 15 tbsp of chili powder. Usually, there are choruses of 'oooh' in the classroom.
Then, I tell students I am going to prove my point a second time. I ask students to find a number of tbsps of beans that appears on both tables (6, for example). I ask students questions that gets us to the conclusion that with the same amount of beans, Ms. Thody uses more chili power.
Finally, students identify a number that shows up in the chili powder column. We talk about diluting the chili powder with beans and make conclusions about the spiciness of the chilis.
(If this last point is confusing kids, I ask them if anyone likes KoolAid. I have them imagine that I have 2 packets of KoolAid. I mix one packet with 2 c of water and one packet with 10 c of water. I have students turn and talk with their partners about the difference between the two mixes)
Once we've looked at three different comparison points, I move into the notes in the Intro to New Material section. The first page lists the steps we followed to complete the chili problem. I use my notes to show students a horizontal ratio table; I want them to be comfortable with both formats. I show students how to write a complete response to the questions asks (answer the question, identify where in the ratio table the reader should look, and then draw a conclusion). The exit ticket samples in this lesson show two student responses.
I guide students through the second problem, using this Exemplar.

Partner Practice
Students work in pairs on the Partner Practice problem set. As they work, I circulate around the classroom. I am looking for:
- Are students correctly creating ratio tables from a given relationship?
- Are students identifying appropriate numbers to compare?
- Are students annotating the problems and ratio tables?
- Are students correctly analyzing the problem to find out what ratio they are looking for?
- Are students completely answering the question asked, including using justification?
I ask students:
- What is the problem asking you to look for? How do you know?
- How do you know which ratios you can compare?
- Are there other comparison points you could have used?
- What conclusions can you draw from your ratios?
- How will you prove your claim?
After 10 minutes of work time, I bring the class back together for a conversation. We look at the second problem of partner practice and identify which paint is redder. I ask students to share the strategies they used to find the comparison point.
I then have students look at the check for understanding problem. These two ratio tables provide a number of possible comparison points. I cold call students to identify pairs of terms we could use to compare.
Resources (1)
Independent Practice
Students work on the Independent Practice problem set.
There are only three problems in the Independent Practice problem set, but each offers different challenges for kids.
In the first problem, students may decide to add a total column or extend the first mixture table. There are multiple pathways to a solution.
In the second problem, students need to fill in a ratio table with decimals. The arithmetic may be slightly difficult for students here (or, they'll at least need to slow down their work to get the computation done).
The third problem requires students to create their own ratio tables before being able to make comparisons.
Resources (1)
Closing and Exit Ticket
At the end of independent work time, the class comes back together for a discussion. I ask for a student who feels very confident about his/her work on problem 1 to share his/her work on the document camera. First, we look at the ratio tables. Some students may have decided to add a total column, some may have extended the Mixture A table, and some may have used 6 pints of white paint as the comparison point. I make sure we discuss all three strategies, as all are valid. We then look at the written response and students give positive and critical feedback.
Students work on the Exit Ticket independently to close the lesson. Two student samples are here: Exit Ticket Sampe A and Exit Ticket Sample B.

Air Pollution Impacts
Yosemite National Park
Natural and scenic resources in Yosemite National Park (NP) are susceptible to the harmful effects of air pollution. Ozone, nitrogen, mercury, and fine particles impact natural resources such as lakes, streams, fish, and vegetation, and scenic resources such as visibility. Click on the tabs below to learn more about air pollutants and their impacts on natural and scenic resources at Yosemite NP.
- Ozone
- Nitrogen & Sulfur
- Toxics & Mercury
- Visibility
Ozone and Public Health Concerns
Ground-level ozone concentrations at the park are among the highest recorded in national parks and sometimes exceed the National Ambient Air Quality Standards set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to protect public health.
Ozone is a respiratory irritant, causing coughing, sinus inflammation, chest pains, scratchy throat, lung damage and reduced immune system functions. Children, the elderly, people with existing health problems and active adults are most vulnerable.
If ozone concentrations are predicted to be high at Yosemite NP, the park educates employees and park visitors by posting alerts about the risks of exposure to high ozone levels and precautions to reduce exposure.
Naturally-occurring ozone in the upper atmosphere absorbs the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays and helps to protect all life on earth. However, in the lower atmosphere, ozone is an air pollutant, forming when nitrogen oxides from vehicles, power plants, and other sources combine with volatile organic compounds from gasoline, solvents, and vegetation in the presence of sunlight. In addition to causing respiratory problems in people, ozone can injure plants. Ozone enters leaves through pores (stomata), where it can kill plant tissues, causing visible injury, or reduce photosynthesis, growth, and reproduction.
Effects of ozone on vegetation at Yosemite NP include:
- Widespread injury to ponderosa pine needles, with up to 30–40% of pines injured at certain survey sites (Peterson et al. 1991; Peterson and Arbaugh 1992; Arbaugh et al. 1998);
- Reduced growth of ozone-injured pines (Peterson et al. 1991; Peterson and Arbaugh 1992);
- Greater ozone injury on low elevation ponderosa pines as compared to ponderosa pines on dry, upslope areas in the park, indicative of stomatal opening and ozone uptake on trees in moist areas (Panek and Ustin 2004).
Search the list of ozone-sensitive plant species (pdf, 184 KB) found at each national park.
How much nitrogen is too much?
Nitrogen is a fertilizer and some nitrogen is necessary for plants to grow. However, in natural ecosystems, too much nitrogen disrupts the balance of plant communities, allowing weed species to grow faster. Nitrogen deposited from air pollution may upset the balance of some high elevation lakes at Yosemite NP. Nitrogen deposition is now about 3–4 kg/ha/yr (Sickman et al. 2001). Projects are underway to examine the effect of excess nitrogen to other resources in the park and throughout the Sierra Nevada, and determine whether the critical load has been exceeded. In Sierra Nevada forests, research suggests that the critical load for some lichen species is about 3.1 kg/ha/yr (Fenn et al. 2008). Above that level of nitrogen deposition, lichen communities begin to change, with sensitive species gradually replaced by pollution-tolerant species. Critical loads for lake and forest resources can be used to establish goals for ecosystem recovery.
Nitrogen and sulfur compounds deposited from air pollution may harm lakes, streams, soils, and vegetation in Yosemite NP. While sulfur deposition is generally very low in California and unlikely to affect most ecosystems, nitrogen deposition is higher and its effects are more widespread. Some high elevation ecosystems in the park are particularly sensitive to nitrogen deposition. Not only do these systems receive more nitrogen deposition than lower elevation areas, but short growing seasons and shallow soils limit the capacity of soils and plants to absorb nitrogen, and dilute surface waters cannot buffer the effects of acid deposition.
Effects of nitrogen and sulfur deposition at Yosemite NP include:
- Elevated ammonia in lichens from park forests, which may lead to the decline of sensitive lichen species (Jovan and McCune 2006);
- Decrease in abundance of certain lichen species important for wildlife food and habitat and replacement by weedy, nitrogen-loving species (Fenn et al. 2008).
Toxic air pollutants include pesticides, industrial by-products, heavy metals like mercury, and flame retardants for fabrics. Certain toxic contaminants are known or suspected to cause cancer or other serious health effects in humans and wildlife, including reproductive problems, impaired growth and development, behavioral abnormalities, and reduced immune response.
Effects of mercury and airborne toxics on ecosystems at Yosemite NP include:
- Elevated concentrations of current-use pesticides (chlorpyrifos, endosulfans, dacthal, and lindane) in park vegetation samples (Landers et al. 2010; Landers et al. 2008);
- Concentrations of current use pesticides and other toxic air contaminants in air and vegetation samples ranked above the median as compared to other national parks studied (Landers et al. 2010; Landers et al. 2008);
- Dramatic population declines of several frog species, including the endangered mountain yellow-legged frogs, likely linked to pesticides (Sparling et al. 2001; Fellers et al. 2004; Davidson and Knapp 2007);
- Elevated concentrations of mercury in fish from Hetch Hetchy Reservoir (Davis et al. 2009 [pdf, 10.8 MB]).
Many visitors come to Yosemite NP to enjoy world-class views of famous landmarks like El Capitan and Yosemite Falls. Unfortunately, these vistas are often obscured by haze caused by fine particles in the air. Many of the same pollutants that ultimately fall out as nitrogen and sulfur deposition contribute to this haze and visibility impairment. Organic compounds, soot, and dust reduce visibility as well. Some of the park's worst visibility is caused by smoke from nearby forest fires.
Visibility effects at Yosemite NP include:
- Reduction of the average natural visual range from about 160 miles (without the effects of pollution) to about 75 miles because of pollution at the parks;
- Reduction of the visual range from about 110 miles to below 35 miles on high pollution days.

Additional Information:
- Explore scenic vistas through a live webcam at Yosemite National Park!
- Learn about the Yosemite Aerosol Characterization Study (YACS), a field campaign conducted in 2002 to investigate visibility-impairing aerosols at the park. An aerosol is a gaseous suspension of fine solid or liquid particles. Determining the content of those particles allows researchers to examine sources of aerosols, either natural or human-influenced. more »
Fire and Smoke at Yosemite NP
Concentrations of fine particles in the park's air sometimes exceed the National Ambient Air Quality Standards set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to protect public health. These episodes are most often due to fires, including both wildland and contained campfires. Fine particles (smaller than 2.5 microns) are also a result of direct emissions from other sources including power plants, mobile sources (like cars), agriculture, and construction sites, or are formed downwind from sources by reactions with gases and aerosols that react in the atmosphere. For example, power plants, industries, and automobiles emit gases such as sulfur dioxides and nitrogen oxides, which form particles of sulfate and nitrate in the atmosphere.
Fires and the resultant smoke are issues of particular concern at Yosemite NP. Not only do park visitors enjoy a fire while camping in the park, but wildland fire is a natural part of the Sierra Nevada ecosystem. However, the smoke a given fire (big or small) produces impairs visibility and can harm human health. Canyon bottoms like Yosemite Valley are areas that commonly experience the highest fine particle levels during calm, smoky periods.
Smoke particles come in all sizes, but the small or "fine" smoke particles pose the greatest health concern because they can get deepest into the lungs and can cause serious health problems. Temporary symptoms from short-term exposures can include burning eyes, runny nose, coughing, shortness of breath, and illnesses like bronchitis. Longer-term exposures to particle pollution may aggravate asthma, increase risk heart attacks and premature death in people with heart or lung disease. Visit Smoke in Yosemite and the park's Air Quality and Smoke Monitoring web pages for more information about current smoke impacts in Yosemite NP.

2 place
4 place
Pro-Composites, Inc. is the manufacturer of the Personal Cruiser Kit aircraft and supplier of parts and plans for the Vision and Freedom Aircraft.
Personal Cruiser - A sporty single place designed for fun and fuel efficient flight. It is not an LSA but can be tailored to be flown in the LSA category.
Vision SP - sport aircraft, acrobatic capable
Vision EX - more useful load
Vision LSA - It's plans built - so you can built it to meet the specifications of LSA and fly on a Sport Pilots license.
Freedom - A 4 place that uses proven construction methods and is still in prototype stage.
Each of these aircraft may feature the "Fold-a-Plane" method of construction for the fuselage. It is a practical method of composite construction that blends molded like smooth exteriors with the benefits of scratch build-as-you-want-it flexibility. This method greatly reduces construction time.
There are various methods and materials used in building aircraft today. The major benefit of these aircraft is that is that they are all composite construction.
Why is "ALL Composite" important? Fewer materials to care for. All materials are affected in some way by environmental factors such as humidity, temperature and exposure to UV radiation. Fewer materials means less to worry about and easier maintenance in the long run. Metal parts need corrosion protection. Hidden wood frames need to be sealed, and are difficult to inspect. Composite construction - needs UV protection on the exterior - easy to inspect and easy to maintain.
A composite structure makes the use of two or more different substances with varying structural properties and combines them to make a structure that is tailored to meet the structural requirements of the designer. With composite construction a synergy of each individual property occurs and if done correctly - lighter and stronger structures are created.
If you are interested in this fascinating construction process then order a set of plans or a kit and get started today!
Home building aircraft is a hobby that will challenge you with learning a new skill, aeronautics and physics (in layman's terms) and eventually the joy of flying something you built. It is not easy but with diligence and a willingness to learn you can complete any of these composite aircraft from your own garage or hanger. Are you ready to take up the challenge?

In Reply to: On the surface posted by R. Berg on November 10, 2005
: : : : : : : Hi all!
: : : : : : : I had a job interview which did not go as well as I had hopped. Basically, my interviewer was not so sure that I was the right person for the job because he doubted I was interested in a long term commitment to his company. After the interview, I sent an e-mail to my interviewer trying to clarify few things hoping to show him that I am indeed genuinely interested. This was his reply:
: : : : : : : "Somehow your write-up does not come as a surprise. It is clear that your interest in X is on the surface. I will review and get back to you."
: : : : : : : I do not understand what he means by "on the surface." Does he mean that he thinks my interest is shallow? Or does he think that my interest in his company is obvious?
: : : : : : : I was educated in US so by background is in American English. My interviewer is from the Netherlands so his background seems to be in British English. Maybe this is why I have trouble understanding this...
: : : : : : : Your help would be greatly appreciated.
: : : : : : : Best regards,
: : : : : : : Zekerijah
: : : : : : I vote for 'shallow', 'superficial' - something along those lines.
: : : : : I get the feeling that the interviewer wanted someone who could and would make a long term commitment to be a part of the company and the team rather than someone who simply wanted a job and an income. I believe the interviewer may have felt that you simply wanted the job and were not interested in (or did not display enough interest in) a long term commitment to the company and the team. Thus, he indicated that your "...interest was on the surface..."--that you simply wanted to get a job. Just my thoughts.
: : : : From the U.S. here. I am not sure what he meant. Couldn't "It is clear that your interest in X is on the surface." also mean your interest is evident or apparent? It is very unclear.
: : : "On the surface, it is clear that .." or "It is clear, on the surface, that..." could be ambiguous, but since it says "... your interest is on the surface" I'd say it is pretty clearly one way. "On the surface" is modifying "interest", not "clear".
: : : Of course, IMO, it is very common in hiring practices to make up lame excuses and then to stick by them no matter what instead of giving any indication of the real reason that they have not chosen you.
: : As Steve E mentioned, somewhere along the line the applicant screwed up and gave the wrong impression to the interviewer that he wanted the job just for the paycheck and did not show much interest in the company except to spend some time there waiting for his next move.
: The meaning isn't unmistakably clear, although "superficial" or "shallow" is most likely. I don't think this interviewer knows English so well. There may been miscommunications in the interview, for the same reason.
At a very deep level the discussion above may be superficial, but on the surface it's really quite profound.

What is Transmission?
Transmission is a BitTorrent client package that (as of version 1.34) also contains Clutch, an integrated webUI. It easy to compile, install, configure and operate, and it has relatively low memory and cpu usage.
Compiling and Installation
The Transmission Wiki Howto Build page gives details. In short, three binaries are created: transmission-daemon, transmission-remote and transmissioncli.
Note:A Forum user has reported that the version in the optware feed gives segfaults when installed in his open stock linkstation pro, following the instructions on transmissions site for compiling should be the best approach.
Network Configuration
- You will probably want to set your LinkStation to a static IP.
- Port forwarding is a good idea. Transmission listens on port 51413.
Configure Transmission
Use the WebUI, which you can see through any modern browser at http://<your-Linkstation's-IP>:9091/transmission/web/ or http://<your-Linkstation's-IP>:9091 . In the bottom left-hand corner there is a small tab that allows you to set preferences and. Choose a torrent directory by specifying Preferences-> Download To: . Many users will choose /mnt or /mnt2, or some subdirectory thereof. You can also set upload and download limits there.
We assume that you have a general idea of how torrents work, and a familiarity with Torrent Trackers. A particulary good tracker that is germane to our needs is LinuxTracker.org. We will use it here in the examples. Be aware that to upload torrent files, you must have open an account there, as is the case for the vast majority of sites.
man pages for Transmission 1.34
For reference, see these man pages for transmissioncli Transmission 1.34. Note that the commands and options have changed a lot since earlier versions of Transmission, so old scripts may not work for you.
- Download a torrent file to your LS. This can be done with wget, but is easier using your desktop's web browser, and then dragging and dropping that torrrent file to a mounted share of your LS.
- To use the WebUI of Transmission, point your browser to <ip of you linkstation>:9091 - you should see something like the screenshot shown on the top of this page.
- Use the Open button to choose & load the torrent file. The download should begin shortly. As is the case w/ torrents, it may be very fast or quite slow, depending on the number of seeders and they upload limits.
Create a torrent file
Place the file you wish to share in your torrent directory. The command form for creating a new torrent file in Transmission 1.34 is:
transmissioncli -n <file to be shared> -a <URL of torrent announcement> <torrent file filename>
For example, if the file you want to share is vmlinuz92608foonasem.gz, then use the cli binary like this:
transmissioncli -n vmlinuz92608foonasem.gz -a http://linuxtracker.org:2710/announce vmlinuz92608foonasem.torrent
After executing this you should have a file called vmlinuz92608foonasem.torrent, which is suitable for uploading to a torrrent tracker site.
Upload to torrent tracker/site
- The torrent that I'm trying to seed reads "Unregistered Torrent". Normally, this problem is because you are trying to seed w/ your original torrent file. The fix for this is usually to upload your raw torrent file to the tracker of your choice, and then download it to your torrent dir. Then open it w/ Transmission and it should proceed as expected.
- My torrent is registered, but seeding doesn't seem to work, even if I know someone is trying to download the file. This could be a port forwarding problem. The easy but really (stupidly) insecure way is to put your box on a DMZ, but this is way too risky in terms of network security. It is better to make sure you have port forwarding set up for port 51413 (TCP, port start:51413, port end:51413, port map: 51413).

Every year, state legislators make a lot of noise about reforming or ending property taxes.
And for good reason.
Property taxes are not progressive, and the state�s reliance on them to pay for our public schools creates serious fiscal issues for school districts. As costs increase, school boards have little choice but to raise property taxes to cover their budgets � and that especially hurts people on fixed incomes. Taxpayers deserve a break, our legislators constantly remind us.
But there is one group of property owners that is getting a huge break on property (and other) taxes.
The natural gas drilling industry.
Because of a 2002 Supreme Court ruling, gas drillers are exempt from paying property taxes on the oil and gas reserves they own. The exemption doesn�t apply to other minerals. Nor does it apply to any other industry.
It is just one example of how the Marcellus Shale industry has been granted special status in Pennsylvania.
A recent study by the liberal Pennsylvania Budget and Policy Center examined the state�s fracking industry and found that as the industry�s profitability skyrockets, its tax burden plummets.
The study found that �the market value of natural gas produced in Pennsylvania exceeded $11.8 billion in 2013 yet natural gas producers pay among the lowest effective production tax rates in the country.�
How low?
In 2013, the industry paid $223 million in impact fees for the gas it produced. That�s a tax rate of 1.9 percent, the lowest effective rate among states that have fracking industries.
That�s not all.
Through various loopholes and accounting tricks, gas companies are able to avoid paying corporate taxes. The state�s �leaky tax system� -- the report�s words -- allows the industry to shift profits out of state. Drillers get exemptions from sales taxes, a break granted manufacturers. And they do not pay property taxes on oil and gas reserves.
The report states: �A myriad of state and federal energy and manufacturing tax credits and deductions allow companies to dramatically reduce their taxable income at the federal and state levels, so much so that some may avoid income taxes altogether.�
Range Resources, the state�s third-largest drilling company, known to many Pennsylvanians for its slick ads, has reported in filings with the federal Securities and Exchange Commission that it does �not pay significant state income taxes.�
These are corporations making huge profits from Pennsylvania�s natural resources, and they clearly are not paying their fair share in taxes.
The industry says that it generates tax revenue in other ways, contracting with local suppliers for materials or through employing workers. The drillers threaten to take their ball and go home should the state tax the gas it extracts.
Gov. Tom Corbett opposes new taxes on drillers, claiming that would cost jobs and harm the fledgling industry. But this an industry that is reaping huge profits; it�s not some start-up small business.
Platts Gas Daily, which tracks natural gas prices and production, concluded that severance tax rates have little impact on the industry�s profitability. A study by a pair of graduate students at Carnegie Mellon University found that �even with the introduction of a severance tax, drilling in the Marcellus Shale will remain too attractive for drillers to ignore. The goose that lays the golden eggs stays put.�
And considering that other states with significant oil and gas industries levy severance taxes, it makes absolutely no sense to oppose an extraction tax. Where are the drillers going to go? For one thing, the gas is here. For another, if they leave Pennsylvania for, say, West Virginia, they will have to pay a 5 percent extraction tax. They could flee to Texas, where they�d be looking at a 7.5 percent extraction tax.
The study concludes that a 5 percent extraction tax would raise $400 million in tax revenues. Democratic gubernatorial candidate Tom Wolf has proposed using that revenue to fund our public schools and help local school districts reduce their $12 billion reliance on property taxes.
As it is, your property taxes are essentially subsidizing a hugely profitable industry.
And that, simply stated, isn�t fair.

The "4th Dimension" is a modification for the expansion Forged Alliance for Supreme Commander which adds new content like completely new designed units, explosions and other effects. But this mod does not only add new content, it also changes parts of the game like balancing and gameplay. The goal of this mod is to make SC feel more realistic (as long as it is better for the gameplay) and to improve the balancing and optics of the game. For example nearly all muzzle velocities have been increased, and many units move much slower now. Another big aspect of this mod is the fact, that in 4th Dimension nearly all units have their right to exist, even in later tech levels, while in Supreme Commander you only see very few low tech units on the battlefield. Beside a new veteran system for vanilla Supreme Commander, which lets stronger units count more than weaker units and which gives units bigger buffs, the mod changes also the tarmac sizes and explosion effects.

Back since Warners' Stellian was simply Stellian in the 1950s, our appliances were warehoused at the State Fairgrounds all but two months of the year.
Many different buildings housed our refrigerators, washing machines, etc. through the decades we spent there. After a customer bought something, our guys would just drive the two blocks to the Fairgrounds, load the appliance into the truck bearing our name on its stakes, and deliver it — sometimes beating the customer to his own house, my grandpa, Jim Warner, would brag.
We kept overhead low enough to offer great prices. In exchange, we had to completely clear our stuff out for the State Fair and for the circus (before which my dad remembers hauling appliances out as the elephants walked in — probably when we were in the 4-H Building).
We also shared a building with Steichen's grocery. Still another building we used across the street lacked a toilet, so the side of the building had to do…sorry!
When we'd return all the inventory hauled from the building to our (then) little single store in Falcon Heights, we barely had space for it, thus creating our annual State Fair Warehouse Sale (a little different from our now EXTREME Warehouse Sale!).
Finally in 1995, we built our first warehouse in the North End neighborhood of St. Paul, which we expanded a few years later and outgrew by 2004, at which time we built our current Warners' Stellian warehouse and corporate headquarters.
For some years now, we've been referring to our history there and our former annual warehouse sale with our "Savings On A Stick" promotion during the Minnesota State Fair.
"Make sure you say they were good to us," my grandpa said, referring to the State Fairgrounds. He said being able to store our inventory so cheaply probably deserves much credit for keeping us around to today.
Sounds fair to me.

Week Seven – Day Four
Well, be careful what you wish for. First thing this morning I was told I had a new assignment – slice and code the landing page for the site we have been working on.
It took me all day but I got it done – setting up the divs and putting links for images that exist in the CSS (you can't have a link outside a whole div, and with no text to put the link on…) It was tough and I had to ask Alex for help at one point but I did get it done.

A risk factor is something that increases your likelihood of getting a disease or condition.
It is possible to develop panic disorder with or without the risk factors listed below. However, the more risk factors you have, the greater your likelihood of developing panic disorder is. If you have a number of risk factors, ask your doctor what you can do to reduce your risk.
Panic disorder typically develops between the ages of 15-24, especially for men. However, it can also begin in the 30s and 40s, especially for women. The prevalence of panic disorder seems to be increasing in younger generations.
Panic disorder is twice as common in women as in men. Pregnancy can either improve the condition or make it worse. Panic disorder with agoraphobia is more common in women, too. More than 75% of people with severe agoraphobia are women.
Family History
There is some evidence that panic disorder and other anxiety disorders tend to run in families. Many studies have shown that panic disorder is common among first-degree relatives of people with panic disorder. Family dynamics, such as overprotective behaviors and failure to learn effective coping skills, may play a role in panic disorder.
Stressful Events in Susceptible People
The initial appearance of panic attacks often follows a highly stressful event, such as, history of childhood sexual or physical abuse, being the victim of a crime, or the loss of a job, loved one, or important relationship.
Increased Sensitivity to Physical Sensations
This occurs when the circuits in the brain take normal events or surroundings and exaggerates them, creating a sense of anxiety. These feelings of anxiety can heighten into repeated panic attacks.
Anxious Temperament
A method of approaching or thinking about ordinary situations and exaggerating them to a point where the body physically reacts to them. The physical response to the anxiety contributes to the onset of panic attacks.
Having Another Mental Disorder
If you have another mental disorder, such as depression , alcohol use disorder , or drug addiction , your risk of developing panic disorder is increased.
Studies show that tobacco use during adolescence and young adulthood contribute to an increased risk of having panic attacks and other anxiety disorders.
Low Socioeconomic Status
Being in a low socioeconomic group is a risk factor for panic disorder. This may be due to factors such as perceived low social status, cultural factors, financial problems, stressful environments, social isolation, and greater daily stress.

False alarms rattle Sarpy County Sunday
False alarms rattle Sarpy County Sunday
PAPILLION, Neb. —
Thousands in Sarpy County had a rude awakening overnight Sunday when several storm sirens malfunctioned and across the county.
Four sirens in La Vista and one located near 132nd and Highway 370 in Westmont alerted neighbors around 1:50 a.m.
Sarpy County 911 Director Larry Lavelle noted there was lightning activity at the time, possibly activating the sirens. The contractor for the areas will research the issues at those sites.
There are 64 outdoor warning sirens across Sarpy County; only the five were impacted Sunday.
